400E Available
Ok Guys,
For those of you looking for a good 400E, there is currently one on ebay (190154028675) The car is at Mercedes Benz of Tampa. Today, I drove by and took a look see. This is a garage queen as all the leather is perfect and soft. No cracks or scratches in the consol wood, the locking center roll top is also perfect. Door pockets don't have the edges curling up etc. The only thing I saw wrong was the headliner is sagging and needs to be replaced/repaired.
The car didn't make the reserve when it was first posted, so it's back on again. All the service was done at Lokey Mercedes in Clearwater. It is the dark gray color with light gray interior. Even the armrest is perfect. Starts as it should and blows stone cold air sitting on the lot. It is a 134a system. Has the Bose radio, no trunk mounted CD changer. Rubber is good all around, it is missing the tool kit. I saw one very minor scratch along the edge of the left rear wheel well. Touch up paint would solve that problem.
Sticker price on the window is $10,700 or so. They have now called me 4 times since noon today. The sales manager is now calling to tell me that they will let the car go for $7400 and change and the headliner repair is about $250.
If I could get my wife to let go of her 02 Olds Aurora, I would have it in the garage tonight.. Something about women and the OnStar feature...
If I didn't think so highly of my coupe, I'd get it for myself. It appears to be a keeper that was well taken care of. Another big plus --- NO ASR and no harness problems.
